We are on a monitored system at work (not redcare).
Scantronic system installed by professional company 5 years ago.
We got burgled recently and it was made worse because the alarm company did not respond to the alarm.
They tell us that when the bell box was ripped from the wall the gsm unit shorted out, lost power and was unable to send a signal, the phone wires had been cut at the same time as the bell box was removed.
We are now told that they have given the gsm its own power supply so it cannot happen again.
Is it me ? but I am thinking that surely if the system was installed correctly 5 years ago the sensible thing, to me, would be that for no amount of external tampering should the internal gsm unit fail?
Can any one comment or give me advise.
